INTERVIEW BEGINS  AT: 29:05

Grace O'Malley isn't the first name that comes to mind when you think of Pirates...until now!, once you hear the story of this amazing figure, you will always associate her with legendary baddassery

described by biographer Anne Chambers as "a fearless leader, by land and by sea, a political pragmatist and politician, a ruthless plunderer, a mercenary, a rebel, a shrewd and able negotiator, the protective matriarch of her family and tribe, a genuine inheritor of the Mother Goddess and Warrior Queen attributes of her remote ancestors. Above all else, she emerges as a woman who broke the mold and thereby played a unique role in history"

We are lucky enough to be joined by Tabitha Birch, who keeps the legend of this Pirate Queen alive by taking on the role in historical reenactments'!! Plus we talk all things geek culture with this amazing woman
